Iskandar's eyes showed a hint of amusent.
"Aunt, you're too kind. Everything is due to the great power of the Earth Mother Goddess!"
With that, Iskandar helped Fazira's mother to her feet.
"Aunt, let enhance your strength now."
He took a divine power speck from a small vial and sprinkled it over Fazira's mother's head. She imdiately began to rge with the divine power speck. Three hours later, the fusion was complete.
Originally possessing only Silver Tier Level Two strength, Fazira's mother now had the strength of Silver Tier Level Five. The surge in power further solidified her resolve to follow the Earth Mother Goddess.
She believed that by diligently working for Iskandar, it wouldn't take long for her to avenge her deceased husband. Aunt's advancent provided Iskandar with additional support. He drew a cross on his chest, saying, "Praise the Earth Mother Goddess!"
"Praise the Earth Mother Goddess!" echoed Fazira and her mother in unison, imitating him.
...
Within three days, under the leadership of Iskandar, more than 200 young, talented mbers of the Shah Family began to worship the Earth Mother Goddess.
They all received divine power specks gifted by Iskandar, resulting in a significant increase in strength. The entire Shah Family's power surged, suddenly gaining over 200 Silver Tier experts.
This developnt did not escape the notice of Rahman and the council of elders.
After careful consideration, Rahman and all mbers of the council visited Iskandar to inquire about the reason behind the power surge among these clan mbers.
However, Iskandar did not reveal the true cause. He casually gave them vague explanations and then dismissed them.
The divine power specks bestowed by the Earth Mother Goddess consisted of only a small vial, and after being used by over 200 people, there was little left.
Iskandar was unwilling to waste the precious divine power specks on Rahman and the council of elders, a group of old tirs.
It's not that the elders weren't powerful, but they had been in high positions for too long, preoccupied with family interests, legacy, and ancestral glory, leaving no room for other beliefs.
Convincing them to sincerely worship the Earth Mother Goddess would be challenging. They were not suitable candidates for cultivation. Currently, the deified warriors of the Shah Family were still in their nascent stages of developnt.
Therefore, Iskandar chose to keep the secret from Rahman and the council to prevent any leaks that could cause unnecessary trouble.
However, Iskandar clearly underestimated the curiosity of these elder statesn within the family. After all, they had ruled the Shah Family for decades, with eyes and ears everywhere. Soon, through their deliberate inquiries, they obtained so information.
"I knew there had to be a reason for the young master's rapid progress; it turns out he's worshiping so unknown deity!" Adam Shah said angrily.
Just a few days ago, he was wholeheartedly supporting Iskandar, but upon learning about the existence of the Earth Mother Goddess, his attitude changed imdiately.
He deeply desired the revival of the family, but he absolutely did not want the family's revival to depend on a group of divine ssengers. After all, once you believe in a god, how can there be room left in your heart for the family?
"Rebellious son, truly a rebellious son!"
Rahman was so furious that he coughed up old blood. He never expected the situation to turn so quickly. The second son, who had been the family's beacon of hope, was now willingly serving as so nonsensical divine ssenger.
"Rahman, you're the forr family head. What do you think we should do?" Adam Shah asked.
At this mont, his face suddenly seed much older. If he hadn't sided with Iskandar, things wouldn't have reached this point.
"Ah, what can I do? You all saw Iskandar's strength during the Tianjiao Bridge event; even if we joined forces, we couldn't match him. Now, they have numbers on their side. What can we do?" Rahman replied with a bitter smile.
Upon hearing this, the mbers of the council could only sigh.
"No, the belief in the Earth Mother Goddess must be controlled. Should we report this to the Alliance?" Adam Shah suggested, gritting his teeth.
Hearing this, everyone fell silent. Reporting to the Alliance was indeed an option. Given the Alliance's imnse power, it wouldn't be too difficult to suppress Iskandar and his followers.
However, once reported, the entire Shah Family would undoubtedly co under scrutiny and be specifically targeted for cleansing.
At that point, the opportunity for the family's revival might be lost forever. At this mont, everyone hesitated.
"No, we cannot report to the Alliance. The Alliance is controlled by Battle Pet Masters, and our ancient martial arts family is fundantally on a different path. If they find out about this, they will surely exploit it to weaken our influence. It could even bring great disaster to the entire family!" another council mber analyzed.
His reasoning made sense. There were many conflicts between the Alliance's Battle Pet Masters and ancient martial arts families. Reporting to the Alliance was a last resort, only to be considered when absolutely necessary.
"What do you suggest we do?" Adam Shah asked sharply.
"How would I know?" the council mber replied, spreading his hands.
"Enough!" Rahman shouted, halting the debate among the group.
"If you still recognize as the leader of our generation, then listen to ."
Hearing Rahman's words, the council mbers slightly bowed.
"This matter cannot be reported to the Alliance, as many would seize the opportunity to attack us. Rember, this is the era of the Battle Pet Masters. Our ancient martial arts community is already an unwelco group. For years, we've sacrificed many clan mbers to fight against the beasts. And what have we received in return? Not even a word of thanks from those Battle Pet Masters! They cannot be trusted!"
Hearing Rahman's words, the council mbers felt a sense of grievance. Over the years, the Shah Family had endured many hardships at the hands of the Alliance, sothing the family leadership knew all too well.
